The firstgroups ordered hack to active service included approximately 400 highly skilled men. such as physicists and chemists, and 700 men under the age of 30 who had been working in copper mines. The war department said the men were being recalled to active duty because of the demobilization of 1,000,000 soldiers under the point rat ing system. Eventually more than 10,000 other soldiers released to work in foundries, rubber, aluminum, textile and other industrial plants will be restored to active service. These will be recalled either as their periods of inactive duty expire or in the case of those released for indefinite periods, as quickly as the industry can spare them.

Potwin, president of the Washington State Reclamation association, said. The reclamation association is opposed to the CVA, but the association's entire program is directed toward river development and proper use of this state's land and water resources," he added. Our opposition to the authority idea is based on the conviction that there is no need for an authority that would have power to control the states economy, and the social and recreational life of its people. Orderly river development, with due consideration for the rights of the state and all its people, is now going forward in cooperation with existing federal agencies, including the bureau of reclamation and the United States army engineers, with congress itself as the coordinator.

"We, further are convinced that river development is but incidental in the minds of some proponents of the authority ideology. and that they would change our democratic form of government by exercising powers which we do not believe congress can constitutionally delegate to them.

(eP)---That whimsical Gilbert and Sullivan line, "The policeman's lot is not a happy one," could be applied with sardonic emphasis to the German civilian police under American military government. Many of them are still under 70, some perhaps only 50, but alongside the strapping young American M. P.s they look old and tired.

One reason for the grandfatherly impression they make as a group is that the Germans put practically every able-bodied man into the army, leaving a rather, elderly lot for police duty. When the military government took over there was a rigorous weeding Out of all Nazis from the municipal provincial police forces. To fill the ranks of the new civilian police the military government had to reach back for veterans On the retired list, some of whom had not walked a beat since Hitler came into power. None Carries None of these policemen is per. mitted to carry arms.

In some towns they function in the same uniforms as before the American occupation, but with the white A. M. G. arm band. In most places they work in civilian clothes and the white arm band is their Only insignia.

The real police power in the American area is military. But there are not M. P.s and security guards to perform all the police tasks, so the military government leans on the German civilian police force to maintain order among civilians. including foreigners classified as displaced persons.

WASHINGTON, May 22. (p) The text of a joint army-navy statement on attacks by Japanese long-range balloons on the western United States mainland: As a means of civilian protection against possible damage and personal injury from sporadic Japanese long-range balloon attacks on the west part of the North American mainland, the war department, with the concurrence of the navy department, has undertaken an educational public safety campaign in cooperation with schools and civic organizations. Menace to Carless. During the last several months Japanese free balloons are known to have landed or dropped explosives in isolated localities. No property damage has resulted.

There is always the possibility that unexploded bombs may be found lying in isolated spots or concealed in wooded areas. Some may be buried beneath melting snow. With the coming of warm weather and the end of the school season, it is desirable that people and especially children living west of the Mississippi river be warned of this possible hazard and cautioned under no circumstances to touch or approach any unfamiliar object. These balloons are of gray, white or greenish-blue paper, about 33 feet in diameter. They carry a few small bombs suspended beneath the balloon.

Itlit believed that the main purpose of the bombs is to set brush and forest fires. They are dangerous and should not be touched by any one not familiar with bombs. These balloons cannot be controlled by the enemy. It Is important that a careful watch be kept for possible forest fires started by incendiary bombs. Thus far no such incident has occurred.

No Military Threat. The war and navy department make this statement so that the public may be aware of the possible danger and to reassure the nation that these attacks are so scattered and aimless that they constitute no military threat. They should not be viewed with alarm. Due to the large areas of the United States and the variable nature of the winds, the possibility of a bit in any specific area is remote. The chances that any given place would be hit by these attacks is only one in many millions.

It is the view of the departments that the possible saying of even one American life through precautionary measures would more than offset any military gain accruing to the enemy from the mere knowledge that some of his balloons actually have arrived on this side of the Pacific. What would aid the enemy greatly Would be exact information as to the time, locality and effect of any specific incident or the number of balloons which land or are sighted. Such information would permit him to evaluate the results of his fantastic effort and possibly correct his methods. auhority." PIN-UP GIRL She wants to get the last puff of goodness from her Raleigh.

In any ease of a casual. ty it will serve the national interest if the press and radio and all civilians will refrain from connecting such casualty with enemy action. Newspaper and magazine readers and radio listeners should understand that reports of Japanese balloons are being omitted from news columns and radio summaries by editors and broadcasters to keep from the enemy further information of balloon attacks on the western hemisphere.
